How do I get a players team in a script?
if Player.Team == "Players" then
this doesn't work. How do I get the players team so that I can have certain team members TP somewhere in my game
I'm basically asking how can I make it so the script knows what team a player is on

Try finding the Color of the team. So basically if Player.TeamColor == bla bla bla mudathir2007 157 — 6y

To find a players team, do one of the following methods:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
local team = player.Team
local teamColor = player.TeamColor
local teamName = player.Team.Name
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
with further questions/comments/concerns, feel free to reply to my answer. Happy scripting! mc3334 649 — 6y

There are multiple ways to find a player's team.
For checking for the team's name, you can either:
- Compare the player's
Teamto the correspondingTeamin theTeamsservice:
1 | script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit) |
2 | local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) |
3 | if player then |
4 | if player.Team == game:GetService("Teams"):FindFirstChild("Team name") then |
5 | -- Do stuff here |
6 | end |
7 | end |
8 | end) |
- Compare the player's Team's
Nameto a string (because theNameproperty itself is a string). This works becauseTeamis a reference property that refers to the player's Team:
1 | script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit) |
2 | local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) |
3 | if player then |
4 | if player.Team.Name == "Team name" then |
5 | -- Do stuff here |
6 | end |
7 | end |
8 | end) |
If you instead want to find the team's color, then you would compare it to a BrickColor:
1 | script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit) |
2 | local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) |
3 | if player then |
4 | if player.TeamColor == BrickColor.new("Color name") then |
5 | -- Do stuff here |
6 | end |
7 | end |
8 | end) |
Variant 2 of the above code:
1 | script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit) |
2 | local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) |
3 | if player then |
4 | if player.Team.TeamColor == BrickColor.new("Color name") then |
5 | -- Do stuff here |
6 | end |
7 | end |
8 | end) |
